Volunteer trail group partnerships

Partnerships are a vital component in maintaining a 2650 mile trail. The PCTA works with numerous nonprofit and community groups throughout the trail to ensure the PCT is maintained, protected, and enjoyed! Many of the nonprofit and community organizations we work with provide local volunteer trail maintenance opportunities, group hikes, and youth education.
